Sophomore Leadership Overnight Retreat

The Sophomore Leadership Overnight Retreat focuses on servant leadership. Bellarmine identifies being "open to growth and leadership opportunities" as one of the values that every single student should develop by the time he graduates.

To that end, all of our sophomores will be attending the Sophomore Leadership Overnight Retreat (SLOR) with Campus Ministry through their homerooms. Each of our nine retreats will leave campus on a Tuesday at 8:15 am. We ask that your son arrives promptly to the baseball field and wrestling center by 8:00 am so that he can board the bus. We will finish our retreat on campus by 2:50 pm on Wednesday.

Students will miss classes on Tuesday and Wednesday and should connect with teachers about work to make up a week in advance of leaving for the retreat. Students should also contact coaches, mentors etc. for any after-school activities they have on the Tuesday of their retreat, since they will not be available to make those commitments.

General Schedule:
Day 1 - Mt. Hermon in the Santa Cruz mountains
Day
2 - San Jose at various service sites, and then back on Bellarmine's
campus.

Don't Step on the B!
The block B sidewalk mosaic was originally placed in the quad during the 1988-1989 school year. Tradition calls for students to walk around the B, rather than stepping on the B, as a demonstration of school pride.
